It's like being back in the classroom. This afternoon I have discovered this interesting article........after taking a workshop on 'iPads to support Writing' this morning. Typical. There are a couple here I haven't used or explored. I find that articles like this often trigger my thinking back to "I use to use that" or "That's right I downloaded that but didn't have a purpose at the time......".

This blog has app suggestions as well as actual examples of works created using that app. Fabulous resource for the artistic ones amongst us......or better still support for those that don't think digital art has a place in the curriculum......some truly insiring stuff!

I'm not surprised by some of the initial comments from teachers - for me they highlight the focus on 'device' rather than pedagogy, its NOT about the tool! So many schools purchase the tool, buy the apps and then think student achievement will automatically be on the improve. Using a model (ELPF or SAMR) would scaffold thinking and leadteachers to delve deeper and create richer learning experiences in the first place, regardless of the tool. I think I got as much out of reading the 'comments' section of this article as the actually article itself. Interesting points of view.
